how can I change attachment size limit?

[Android Central Question]

I am trying to send a video but it on messaging but it keeps saying attachment size limit is exceeded how can I change the size limit?

You cannot change it.

If the message type is SMS/MMS, the limit is set by your carrier. All the USA carriers use really small limits like 600-1000 KB.

If you are using an instant message service, like WhatsApp, their limits are much bigger but still limited.

To get past the limits, you need to use a photo hosting site or a file sharing site to upload the video to, then send the URL of the video in your message.
